BUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's not nice, Eagle. :-( Do remember that no matter HOW bad Dustin has been, he's still somebody's son and his family will be devastated when he dies. Who? His brother? I have no compasion for that punk Dave. |

I heard one time that folks considered terrorists if they stayed in UK went to UK and got the dole (welfare). Also a colleague working there told me he could live nearly as well not working. Then there was a German that I worked with in the US got transferred around and back to Germany and was riffed. I had recommended him doing some consulting for the US and he said it was not worth his while as it would interfere with government unemployment. |

Our Social Security payout is wage based to a maximum of $2635 a month. You spouse can collect 50% of that even if she has not worked enough to qualify for her own. Thanks for the info.. Seems inordinately generous! ;-) The employee and the employer both pay 6.2% of our income into it. What we paid in over the past 54 years will take me 18 years to get back. If I live to 84 I roughly break even. If I was single and no wife to collect it would take 27 years for payback. Doubt I'd be here to 92, but possible. These are rough numbers based on today, not considering changing rates, inflation, etc. I appreciate you explaining, Ed. If you stay reasonably well, I sincerely hope you *DO* reach 92! -- David B. |

So why did you say 2 posts upstream: "Perhaps they may now be more sympathetic". As he pointed out in a parallel thread, he never asked for sympathy. It looks more like you David are just trying to make yourself look more empathic than your heart makes you feel. Why is that? Are you aware that (redacted) had suicidal tendencies I am aware that you keep saying so. Was this a private message you should not have shared, a forged message, or one where you have distorted the context? Even if it were truly something he said publicly, it still amounts to personal feelings that a normal person would not keep repeating. What have YOU done to help him? 1) Respect his privacy. Part of this is following his request not to use his real name here, despite that fact that everyone knows it already. I even bothered to redact it in my inclusions above because it seems that this is too complicated for you to understand. 2) Freely give tech tips if I know answers offhand, instead of making him jump through hoops. 3) Don't respond to posts forged in his name or posted by the anonymous coward. 4) Don't go on about stuff he did during the previous millenium that he has apologized for several times. 5) Tell him politely when I believe he is mistaken. If cook drug you through the mud like he has to several other posters here, then you might have a different view on treating him with respect. Perhaps some of your relatives being dox'd here would change your friendly attitude towards him? Mike 'came late to the party', Dave! FWIW, I don't trust the posting persona calling itself 'Mike Duffy'. A 'sock' for sure! (Probably RonNNN!) -- "Do something wonderful, people may imitate it." (Albert Schweitzer) |

I can post those MIDs too where I tried to get you to fork engine specs so I could run them thru the Dyno software i've got. I chose not to share that cook, and the dyno tuning was an option I chose so I could use the computerized hardware I use to 'tune' the power curve which I didn't have until about a year ago. Now I use a laptop to tune the engine for the track conditions I deal with for top performance. You had no idea such software even existed. WRONG. Assuming makes you an ass. |

About Dustin (was - BD, pick up the phone)

Just for the record, What I have is NOT a disease! He's just forgotten the specifics, and, I refuse to assist him with them. I've *never* asked for sympathy, either. I don't have to /remember/, Dustin. Here are *your very own words*, straight from the Usenet records:- = I have a rare genetic's related illness.. My breaths will continue to get shorter until.. I just stop breathing outright. Hopefully that's still a few years away, but.. sometimes; I can feel it. I might look like a high school kid still, but on some days, I can feel my real age creeping up on me with the illness I have. I especially enjoy dr visits where they can see my birthdate but aren't doing the math to get my age and so list the things I'll experience in my late teens, early twenties and into my thirties, and fourties as well assuming I live that long. The first time that happened, the dr scared me a bit..(He thought I was twenty something). I've been experiencing the later symptoms for several years now and I know i'm getting worse, I can feel it. Some days are better than others tho. They don't have a cure for my illness, but they do have a stop gap measure to artificially introduce a missing enzyme back into my body; but I'm not cool with blood transfusions and i'd have to start doing that sooner rather than later and it'll only buy me a few years tops. They can't even guarantee it would give me five more for the hassle. Not to mention the cost for the treatment. 30k each time. It's insane! I could have gone my entire life without being around cigs or smoking myself and it still wouldn't matter due to genetics. Some things are just beyond an individual persons control. So, for the most part I just tell myself that I'm fine and most anybody would be out of breath from walking up all those damn stairs. [g] It's especially fun when you get light headed and see stars and you didn't even really do anything stressful. If I'm sitting down and get up too fast, I can pass the **** out due to low oxygen levels/low blood pressure sometimes and it's all related to something I can't fix that I didn't catch; I was born with it. Every year I'd have to have blood work done so they could monitor this stupid ****ing enzyme that hasn't even been in trace amount levels since I was seventeen years old. When I turned eighteen, I told the drs to stick those needles up their asses; I wasn't coming back for more. It was the same old story anyway; yes, it's less this year than last year, or.. we can't even find trace amounts anymore; your Liver has stopped producing it outright. This is what you will begin to experience as you continue to age.. and they'd list symptoms. Basically what it boils down to is this: I'll either die from cardiac arrest that'll be painful for a little bit, or suffocate as my oxygen levels plumit because my lungs aren't converting enough anymore. This is what I have to look forward to, pending a car wreck or home invasion or something doesn't get me first. Now, you try living with that knowledge since you were a little fellow and see if it doesn't affect your attitude and outlook on things ever so slightly. Especially when you start to feel what the drs have told you for years you would eventually experience. You find that you don't have enough time to complete everything you had in mind; and that you most likely will be leaving sooner than some other people and you had no control over any of it. Message ID http://al.howardknight.net/msgid.cgi...4.75.214.90%3E = I personally don't believe you were lying about this condition (perhaps I shouldn't have referred to it as an illness, but I'm sure folk got the gist of what I meant). Quite a burden for you to be carrying all your life. Remember, though, that God never gives any of us a burden which we are unable to carry. Remember that poem I quoted to you before? http://www.sapphyr.net/largegems/footprints.htm Footprints in the Sand One night I had a dream. I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.. Across the sky flashed scenes from my life.. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me, and the other to the Lord.. When the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that many times along the path of my life there was only one set of footprints. I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in my life. This really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it: "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I need you most you would leave me." The Lord replied: "My precious child, I love you and would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you." by Mary Stevenson -- The only people who make a difference are the people who believe they can. |

I've known Mike Duffy and yourself for a considerable amount of time. Mike is *not* a sock of yours. As far as the other dave is concerned, I don't take anything he writes at face value, either. He claimed I forked a pic of tar slopping (his pathetic attempt to insult those who are in the paving business); which I've *never* done, myself. He just straight up, LIED about the pic and my having done that for a living because he got ****ed off about my mudslinger comment directed towards him. He forgot that he'd already told me he was a 'plasterer' Or his bull**** comment about discussing myself with local police in this area. First, it was a recording, then, when pressed, his story changed into a text file. That would be easy to 'share' with us all, yet, nothing. Just like the pic that doesn't exist concerning my slopping tar. As for his claims he built his truck, he's directly contradicting previous limited discussion concerning it as well. He didn't build the damn truck, he had it built. That conversation came up concerning money comparisons. The track truck I have, that he'll likely *never* get pics of has my blood, sweat and tears on it. Whatever I didn't build myself, I *did* participate in it's construction. David Eagle (Naturous) cannot claim the same. His idea of building something is paying somebody else to do it, for him. Just like BD's claim of building a house once. When pressed, he hired people to do the work, but attempted to take credit for things he himself, had nothing to do with. -- I would like to apologize for not having offended you yet.
